RE: Cheezy Chowder

This is one of our family's favorite soup recipes. You can also substitute Velveeta for the cheese whiz, a large can of Veg-All for the frozen veggies, and frozen potatoes for the fresh. I've done it both ways. We also add cooked, diced chicken, as well. If it seems to thin, stir in a couple of Tbsp of cornstarch in the milk before adding to the soup to thicken it up. (10/05/2009)
